Abstract:
The present investigation entitled “Studies on the effect of integrated nutrient management on seed yield of coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) cultivars under Southern Telangana” was carried out during the rabi season of the year 2021-2022 at College of Horticulture, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, SKLTSHU. The field experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized block design with 8 treatment combinations, and 3 replications. The factors consists of four integrated nutrient management levels, N1 100% RDF + FYM (10 t ha^-1) + Azospirillum (5 kg ha^-1) + PSB (5 kg ha^-1) + KSB (5 kg ha^-1), N2 75% RDF + FYM (10 t ha^-1) + Azospirillum (5 kg ha^-1) + PSB (5 kg ha^-1) + KSB (5kg ha^-1), N3 50% RDF + FYM (10 t ha^-1) + Azospirillum (5 kg ha^-1) + PSB (5 kg ha^-1) + KSB (5 kg ha^-1), N4 100% RDF + FYM (10 t ha^-1) (Control), with two varieties V1- Sudha and V2- Susthira. Among the treatments, 100% RDF + FYM (10 t ha^-1) + Azospirillum (5 kg ha^-1) + PSB (5 kg ha^-1) + KSB (5 kg ha^-1) with the variety Susthira recorded significantly maximum number of days taken to harvest, number of seeds per umbel, test weight (1000 seed), seed yield per plant, seed yield per plot, seed yield per hectare.
